The Leica NOCTIVID 8X42 glasses are compact in size, stylish, and elegant, but nevertheless unbelievably robust and resilient. Ideal for every walk of life, the Leica Noctivid binoculars set standards alone with their design. The optical and mechanical systems of the Leica Noctivid family of binoculars unite the best of the latest and most innovative technologies to create a pinnacle of excellence.
The optical engineers have integrated no less than 12 glass lens elements in the Leica Noctivid models to achieve viewing excellence that fulfills even the most stringent demands. Schott HT™ (High Transmission) glasses ensure amazingly natural color rendition. The Leica Noctivid binoculars take advantage of a high-temperature plasma deposition process for highest-quality lens coatings that guarantee perfectly balanced transmission characteristics throughout the entire wavelength range of visible light, which results in a breathtakingly bright and color-neutral viewing image.
Innovative baffle systems for the suppression of stray light guarantee optimum reduction of reflections and maximum contrast. The modification of the radii of the lenses made it possible to achieve a further improvement of sharpness right up to the extreme edges of the viewing image. Innovative AquaDura® coating, a Leica development, ensures a crystal-clear view in all weathers and protects the lenses against scratching and abrasion. Thanks to this special coating, dirt and finger marks can be effortlessly wiped away.
The essentials:
- Best detail recognition thanks to 8x magnification
- Excellent stray light suppression and high contrasts allow the observation of the finest structures under the most difficult conditions
- Fatigue-free, relaxed observation thanks to its compact design and ideal weight distribution
